cities of the west claiming a boom but that
be had found but one place possessing the
original and only genuine article and that
place Wichita He said that the Louisville,
Kansas City, Fort Smith and Springfield

that of Wichita when the multiplied evidence
are 60 thick upon every hand. Prot. McC.
says he proposes to catch on and become
identified with the city.

Dissecting an Organ.

New YORK, April S.--lSpecial Telegram
to the BEE. Members of the general COM
mittee of the united labor party occupied the
greater part of that body's session last night
in berating the partys official organ, "Tho
Leader" and sticking the knife of criticism
into Its late editor, r. j. Hinton. The on
slaught was precpitated by report of the
committee which was appointed for the pur.
pose of recommending something which
would result in keeping the organ aliye and
making it power for the propagation of the
principles OF the united labor party. The
report, which is a long one, declares that
Hinton's editorials were too long, too dry,
contained sentiments that were pro-
nOunced to be socalistic and even
anarchistic, and that there was woelul
lack of news in the paper. Hinton was
present In q front scat, envelOped in n haze
of tobacco smoke, his fingers working ner-
leaped to his feet, and came down
upon his heels with a bang that could be
heard above the roaring of dozen delegates
for recognition. Chairman McMackn ac-
corded him the floor, but even before the
words of recognition left his mouth the
colonel was shouting with the full strength
OF his powerful lungs: 81 pronounce tho
editorial management of the paper as false
in every particular. / speak for the paper.
l am not connected with the editorial de-
partment. Ny connection closed last night
but was upon its editorial staff, and durin g
the past six months have written 80 per
peared in its columns" A general and
lively debate followed, in which much bitter
ness was exhibited, and it was finally de.
cided to table the report.

The Haytian Row.

PARIS, April S.--The government has Or
dered man.of-war now in the West Indian
waters to proceed to Port-au-Prince to pro-
tect Europeans there in view of the reports
OF threatened massacre by IIaytians, in
the event of their government complying
with the demands OF Great Britain, on ac-
count of some claims.
Advices received by the Hayticn legation
at Paris, from Port-au.Prince says the Hay
tans are much excited over Great Britain's
demand, but deny they have threatened to
massacre foreigners.
WAsHINGTOY, April s.-Although no cor
respondcnce passed between the department
OF state and the government of Great Britain
in regard to the reported threat of that gov
ernment to sieze Tortugas island from Hayti
in default of a debt, yet an investigation is
being made and all data. reat-
ing to the subject in possession of the de-
partment is being collected. The English
claim appears to be very intricate in its ma.
ture. The correspondence had, in Freling-
huysen's administration, show that tho claim
Is an individual one, based upon a number
of ccssions, sub-sessions and contracts, rG-
garding the privilege to cut mahogany that
was not cut or at least not in sufficient quan.
tlty. The amount of tho claim In Freing-
huysen's administration was placed at
$500 O00

A Curious Easter Custom.

NEW YORK, Arril s.-A Washington
special says: On Easter Monday Mrs. Cleve-
land will come in from Oak View where she
has been for the last few days, to see the egg
rolling in the white house grounds. This
will be novel spectacle to her and is one of
the most curious and distinctive children's
customs in the world. Egg rolling at Easter
is common enough, but why Washington
children for rlonger back than anybody can re-
member should this daytake possession of one
particular spot is as queer as anything in the
mysterious regions of children's myths and
customs. Nobody knows when it originated.
1t Is required of every president that besides
giving UP his private grounds on that day he
shall come out at least once during the after
noon and show himself on the south portco.
President Arthur always did it and President
Cleveland did last year, and every child who
goes knows that the president is due on the
south porticO and would be highly indignant
If he failed to put in an appearance. No
doubt "Frankie," as the children call Mrs.
Cleveland, will be anxiously expected on
Monday and her arrival will be hailed even
more than the presidents.

Prohibition Defeated,

DETROIT, April S.--From all reports re-
ceived the Evening Journal now figures the
majority against prohibition at 3,676. More
complete returns in most cases cut down
the prohibition vote. In this (Wayne) county
the majority against the amendments is 22.344.
being an increase of several hundred over the
former reports. There IS no doubt that pro-
hibition has been defeated.
MARQUETTE, Mich, April S.-There Is
great excitement all over tho northern Mich
igan peninsular over alleged frauds in the
recent election which places in doubt the fate
of the prohibition amendment The Iron
wood authorities are reported to have sought
legal advice. 1t being charged that
voters by the hundreds ' were i'm.
ported from Wisconsin to vote
against the amendment. Frauds are alleged
to have occurred in. Gageleic county. That
the most wholesale fraud was carried on
there seems apparent. Revised returns cut
down the vote against amendment 8, $50, al
lowing Bessemer nearly l,l00. IT Bessmer
county is then out and there is no doubt Of a
contest the state has certainly carried the
amendment,

Prairie Fire In Dakota.

WATERFOWL, Dak, April S.-A severe
wind, which toward nightfall eliminated
into tornado, lasted throughout the day in
this section. About II a. IN. 1t drove up q
prairie fire to the western limits of town, de-
Stroying barn and two stacks The fire de-
partment and the entire population turned
out, and by heroic efforts saved that portion
of the city. This evening the binding
clouds of dust rendered 1t impossible
for one to see a building half block
distant. This lasted nearly an hour.
AT this time the portion southeast of the city
caught lire and the fire alarm was given by
every bell in the city, but the wind blew, the
flames away from the town to the inhabi-
portion of the city seemed on fire. The mer.
curry stood at SIS degrees above during the
afternoon. During the storm this evening
freight cars were blown out of the North
western yards, and when last heard from
were going before the wind down the track
towards Garry. Lumber piles were scattered
and light articles were strewn about the
streets. The present indications are for
rain.
